Act I - 08 Act II - 42 Act III - 118 Act IV - 167 Act V - 191 HIGGINS (rising, and going over to Pickering) Pickering: if we were to take this man in hand for three months, he could choose between a seat in the Cabinet and a popular pulpit in Wales. PICKERING What do you say to that, Doolittle? DOOLITTLE Not me, Governor, thank you kindly. Ive heard all the preachers and all the prime ministers-for I’m a thinking man and game for politics or religion or social reform same as all the other amusements-and I tell you it’s a dog’s life any way you look at it. Undeserving poverty is my line. Taking one station in society with another, it’s-it’s-well, it’s the only one that has any ginger in it, to my taste. HIGGINS I suppose we must give him a fiver. PICKERING He’ll make a bad use of it, I’m afraid. Act I - 08 Act II - 42 Act III - 118 Act IV - 167 Act V - 191 |
